Best Post Light Repair in Phoenix AZ

Simple Electric is SIMPLY EXPENSIVE...

Review is on the estimate of work only... No work done...

Made an appointment with Simple Electric to bid on a very very simple job of adding a light switch and 2 duplex outlets in series on the same wall a few feet apart in my garage.

The dispatch operator took all my information including my description of the work, materials reuired, and pictures of the job site and set me up for an appointment for the quote "AND" possibly do the job.

So I took off from work which costs me money for this technician to arrive and stood in my garage for 2 minutes with 5 seconds staring at the wall before rattling off a quote of over $700. He had no intention to do any work so don't let what the dispatch operator allow you to think they are coming out to do both.

I thanked him even after he lowered it to $600. But I called someone else just as reputable or more who did the job for a bit over $300 which is competitive with at least 2 other companies I spoke with and was reasonable for the complexity of the job.

Contractors are good at saying "Time Is Money" for them but it works both ways. With zero time spent really looking what may or may not be in the wall or attic above, this estimate could have been done as effectively via email and a few pictures of the wall exterior. So tack on my loss of income for this estimate and then multiply x2 should they com back and do the work.

Reading other reviews, over-charging is rather common with Simple Electric.

I worked with both Daryl & Paul at Wiring Pros for a major project to trench and add a new 200a service for a pool at a small apartment complex. I met them for the initial site visit, and they were on time, polite, answered all my questions, and prompt with providing a written bid with a few options, and their bid was the most competitive.

When I authorized the work, despite some unexpected complications coming up with the permitting process, they both kept me appraised of the progress and stuck to their initial bid. And they delivered quality work on time.

This alone would be worth five stars, but I probably wouldn't have written a review but for two other points where they were great.

1) There was some modest other dead service mast removal and outlet repairs to complete; though they knew I was out of town and unlikely to do a competitive bid on this additional work, they gave a very fair and reasonable bid for these pieces so that there was no hesitation on my part in awarding that incremental work to them.

2) There was yet another piece of work in adding a new pole to adjust the position of the overhead utility line; though they gave a good bid which I approved, after I approved the bid, they started getting mixed signals from the utility on whether they could perform the work or the utility would only allow it to be done in-house.  Paul spent the next two weeks repeatedly calling and following up with the utility to resolve this confusion, rather than starting and charging me for work. We ultimately found out would not be able to be put into service, which was a lot of effort & research into something that didn't turn into a paid job. But yet Paul was incredibly helpful, communicative, and even apologetic for the hold-up (which was the utilities fault, not theirs) 'til the end.

So, if I could give it, six stars, for Paul & Daryl, I would: honest, fair, communicative, competitive, and good quality - a rare combination!

I needed some new recessed lights installed in a bonus room and bought all the supplies thinking I would do it myself. Ultimately, I decided to find an electrician and messaged several on Yelp. Firefly responded quickly and set up an appointment for the next day. They showed up on time, knew exactly what to do, and quoted a fair price for labor. 2 hours later they had finished the entire job and the lights looked great!

The only thing they could have done better is used a shop vac while cutting holes in the drywall to minimize dust. They did cover everything with plastic to protect furniture, rugs, etc., but drywall dust still gets everywhere and some cleanup was required. I would still recommend them and will use them again when I need electrical work done

Asked for estimate Alex came by Saturday and said after he left he would have the estimate to
Me in 20 minutes . 2 days later no estimate and no response from Alex.

This company quoted me $675 when I knew their costs was much lower than that. When I asked them why they said cost of materials. When I looked it up that wasn't the case at all and they switched their answer. When I told them I was going to report my interactions they tried to guilt trip me. Screenshots for proof. Stay away!

I called Rio Electric to remove an old cooktop and install a new one after my new countertops were installed, knowing that I would need two appointments. Ryan was extremely helpful over the phone. Dan did a quick job of pulling out the old cooktop and answered all of my questions. I will have them return to install the new cooktop and am confident that it will be done correctly. I highly recommend Rio.

I called Elan based on the number of positive reviews and I'm glad I did.
My experience with Elan was positive from the first telephone conversation.  I had a number of questions and I found them so thorough in explaining everything and giving some good advice. TJ came to do the work and he was professional, engaging and helpful.  He installed two light fixtures, helped me with a problem with a kitchen light, fixed two outlets, and removed electrical wiring associated with a removed fountain.  I felt the price was reasonable and I would absolutely use them again.

Great communication during scheduling. A friendly and skilled person arrived and installed a outlet in our carport for EV charging!

Found we had a broken light fixture days before we were to list our home for sale.  We put out a query for quotes and he got back to us very quickly and was able to come out the same day to fix our light fixture!!  Thank you!!

We used Douglas Wright Electric to add an outlet in the garage. They were great about communication, showed up on time, and were able to do the job on the spot. Very professional and knowledgeable and got the job done quickly. I'd strongly recommend them for any electrical work.

Steven came to my house to fix my outdoor electrical sockets. He was prompt and was able to get to my house earlier than expected. He found the problem in less than 60 seconds and was out of there 5 minutes later. I appreciated his help as my outlets had not been working for 4 months. I would definitely recommend him!!

Reliable and kind family business. Chad helped us install an ionizer on our HVAC - it was an unfamiliar and difficult job but he was up for the task. Customer for life!

We moved into our house in 2008.  The contractor had installed hardwired with battery back up smoke detectors that last for approximately 10 years.   At 14 years, we were finally replacing ours.   Jason explained the smoke detectors to us before installing...then meticulously checked each one to be sure they were working as an interconnected group.  There were 6 detectors so there was a bit of sound in the house but we were so comfortable knowing it had been carefully installed.   We also had Jason replace two exterior sconces on the house.   Also done to perfection.   Finally, I'd like to give a shout out to Kristin - their office manager - she answered my never ending stream of questions quickly and thoroughly.   A very professional company from our perspective.

We found Adam on Amazon. We needed some minor work done in our home. He arrived when he was scheduled and could not have been more friendly. He did great work and the price was fair. We may need some more things done in the future and will not hesitate to call him.

I have been looking for an electrician to install recessed lights in my living room. They were very responsive came out quoted me the job and within a week I had the lights installed. Hector was very respectful, honest and a very hard worker. He went above and beyond what needed to be done. I highly recommend thunder electric. Good, honest electricians are hard to come by but I found one. Thanks Hector

Troy was talented, professional and friendly. We managed to tackle a few projects at once and he explained everything along the way. Will definitely hire him and his team again for any future electrical projects.

Greg came today to help me with the connection in one of the rooms and was able to fix the wiring, make the fan work and find the problem. Very  reliable and knowledgeable. Would totally recommend

Max has completed multiple projects at our home from installation of to outlets to installing wiring for cameras. If you are looking for someone who is honest, trust worthy , and reliable this is it. I always have peace of mind knowing that if I have any need I can reach out to Max. I can't recommend max voltage enough! Thank you.

Called these guys to schedule a service that they advertise on their website. They told me that they had bigger jobs than mine so weren't willing to come. Please consider adding that information to your website. Otherwise it comes off pretty rude. I prefer to work with companies that treat every customer equally.

Mauser was great to work with. They had an incredibly competitive offer, clear communication, and great at providing ongoing updates about getting ready for the project. They replaced a panel for me, and got the job done well. They communicate well via text - which is incredibly helpful.
